PERFORMANCE HINTS

Summary from the TLDR Dev newsletter

Jeff Dean and Sanjay Ghemawat, some of Google's most important engineers for over 25 years, wrote a guide on optimizing software performance. Performance needs to be considered early in critical code paths instead of solely relying on post-development profiling for optimization. The guide also covers algorithmic improvements, efficient memory representation, reducing allocations, avoiding unnecessary work, and using parallelization.
